Huaota antibody drug discovery platform covers high-throughput automated hybridoma  technology, single B cell screening technology, nano antibody screening technology and antibody phage display technology. It supports rapid and large-scale screening of  therapeutic monoclonal antibodies.

The antibody drug discovery platform also covers antibody humanization, affinity maturation and Fc modification technologies for antibody optimization. Together with platforms of in vivo and in vitro drug efficacy evaluation and druggability analysis, it forms a complete drug discovery system.

The antibody drug discovery platform has served the development of a variety of new biologics in different therapeutic areas, which aims at providing affordable drugs to meet the unmet medical needs globally.

ispecific antibody (BsAb) targets two antigens or different epitopes at the same time, achieving synergistic effect of dual targets or enhancing broad-spectrum effects. It enhances anti-tumor immunity with increased binding specificity and synergy, while reducing off-target effects. Compared with traditional monoclonal antibody drugs or combination drugs, it has the advantages such as high efficacy and low cost.

Huaota has successfully created a variety of bispecific antibody R&D platforms, including receptor decoy fragment-antibody (Trap in Mab), Nanobody based, single-chain antibody, etc. Thanks to the excellent structure and style, the bispecific antibody platform has multiple advantages such as high purity, good production quality control, high yield, safety and effectiveness. At present, many products are in the international multi-center clinical research stages.

Huaota is identifying and developing innovative antibodies that target antigens which are highly expressed in tumors to build up the foundation of the ADC technology platform. In addition to high specificity, these antibodies aim to offer longer half-life and optimal affinity.  

Huaota aims to employ new classes of high specific and stable ADC linkers, which are designed to improve druggability and reduce potential toxicity.

Huaota aims to employ highly specific and potent small molecular payloads for the ADC technology platform, which can maintain activity in multidrug-resistant tumor cells and kill the tumor cells effectively.
